Su Yanxi was a noble young lady of the interstellar era, famous among the aristocracy. However, one day, her long-lost sister returned. Her sister, with SS-rank mental power, became the group's...
All employees meet the standards
That's right! After knocking three times, she obtained a black crystal ore?
Is it a coincidence?
Zhao Siqing continued to try.
The second and third successful attempts to dig out black crystal ore confirmed to her that the rules of that mysterious space could indeed take effect in reality.
Zhao Siqing didn't know what she was feeling. In the quiet mine, she laughed uncontrollably. Her laughter became louder and louder, almost crazy, attracting the attention of others.
Zhao Siqing finally got tired of laughing, tears welling up in her eyes. She stopped laughing and said to the other miners who were completely clueless and confused:
"Take out your pickaxe and give it a try. You'll be surprised!"
Without much explanation, the other miners immediately understood what to do when they saw the pickaxe in Zhao Siqing's hand. They took out the pickaxes produced by the system and started mining. As they dug, their eyes widened, their consciousness became confused, their brains stormed, and they could not tell whether they were in reality or still in a dream.
Aunt Hu dug frantically, ignoring the doubts and cheers of others. Soon, she had dug a full bamboo basket of black crystal ore.
Throwing away the pickaxe in her hand, she limped and ran as fast as she could, dragging the bamboo basket with her. Her speed shocked the other miners who were still hammering away.
"Hey, why did she run away?"
"I see her basket is full. She must have dug almost all the dirt!"
"Hurry up! We can definitely complete the task today!"
Aunt Hu didn't know about other people's confusion. She dragged her bamboo basket to the counter and lined up. It was night time and many people had already completed their tasks, so there were not many people queuing at night.
Aunt Hu anxiously peered forward from the end of the line, counting the people who had finished weighing the ore. Ten... great, nine... another one finished, eight, seven, six... it was almost her turn! It was almost her turn!
"Hey! Bring your ore over here, what are you standing there for?!"
Aunt Hu came back to her senses and the supervisor's face enlarged in front of her.
She looked around and it was her turn!
Aunt Hu bent down and picked up the basket in one go, then stood in front of the instrument, holding her palm and staring at the numbers displayed on the mine scale with bated breath.
"Facial recognition successful, miner Aunt Hu, a total of 100 black crystal ores, completed today's check-in."
At that moment, Aunt Hu forgot to breathe and her face turned red.
"Hey! Once you're done weighing, leave! Don't waste time! There are people waiting to be weighed behind you!"
The supervisor pulled the stiff Aunt Hu aside and drove her away, and only then did she feel a sense of reality.
Following Aunt Hu was Zhao Siqing, who had also completed her task. The two returned together, walking at a brisk pace.
Gradually, the supervisor realized that something was wrong.
"Hey, have you noticed that more people who came to weigh the ore tonight seem to have met the standards than usual?"
"Now that you put it that way, it seems so!"
The two supervisors couldn't help but feel puzzled, and this puzzlement reached its peak when they saw Dali and heard the counting scale announce that Dali had completed the clocking in.
The supervisor was shocked.
If I remember correctly, this Dali was trapped under a mine yesterday and was seriously injured, with his arms and legs broken. It's really disrespectful for him to be able to dig 100 black crystal ores!
Some people have great strength and ability but it is so hard to complete the task, how can this person do it?!
The supervisor stared at Dali carefully.
One arm was broken, one leg was broken, and he dug 100 pieces of ores in this dying state?
The supervisor let out a surprised sound, human potential is indeed infinite!
No wonder the captain whipped those who failed to complete their mission. It really worked! A little pressure always worked! These untouchables are just born lazy!
The supervisor felt that he was on the same level as the team leader, as if he was as smart as the team leader and was capable of being the team leader, and he felt very superior.
However, the more tasks an old, weak, or sick person like Dali completed, the more strange he became.
How did these people manage to get together today to complete the task?
Although the supervisor was curious, he was too lazy to bother with them. He just weighed the ore and if there was no problem with the ore, there was no problem with him. However, the captain was different.
He swung his whip vigorously, stepped on the ground with his thick-soled rubber boots, and walked to the abandoned mine with great momentum, only to find that—
There's no fucking person here!
He lashed the wall with a whip in anger, and gravel fell to the ground with a rustling sound. The captain sneered.
Could it be that these old, weak, and disabled people couldn't stand the daily punishment and fled en masse?! They ignored his captain's orders? When he found these people, he would tear them into pieces! Beat them until they fell to the ground and couldn't even get up!
The team leader went to the mine supervisor and asked sternly, "Who didn't meet the standards today?"
The supervisor had returned to the cave early and was about to take a shower and go to bed when he was found by the boss and instantly jumped out of bed.
My muscles cramped a bit from the overreaction, and the supervisor replied, "All are up to standard."
"?" The captain's mouth twitched slightly, his disbelief obvious. "How is that possible?! How many ore can that group of people dig out in a day? You tell me it can meet the standard? And some of their hands are useless. How can this meet the standard?!"
"But, Captain, everyone has indeed met the standards." The supervisor said innocently.
"You're kidding me!" The captain's whip broke through the air and landed on the ground with a loud snap.
The supervisor was startled and said weakly, "That's what the counting scale says. I can't do anything about it..."
“…” The captain cursed.
He would personally supervise the work tomorrow. He didn't believe anyone else could be so lucky! Unless they stole or robbed, there was no way those people would be able to complete the task!
The next day came quickly, the sky was still gray, and the team leader was waiting at the counting place early in the morning. Soon, a familiar-looking person came over.
The first one was a skinny old man who loved the sound of a whip hitting bones. Every whip was a collision of force. However, today, he completed the task.
Captain:?
The second one was a slightly plump middle-aged woman, also his favorite whipping object. The whip was very elastic when it hit the fat and oily flesh, as if it was dancing, but he also heard her mission completion announcement.
The third, the fourth, the fifth...
As more and more people finished their check-ins, the captain's hands itched to burst. He lashed the ground with a whip and called out to the last dwarf, "Stop!"
The dwarf trembled and turned around tremblingly.
"What's the matter, sir?" He often saw the captain shivering reflexively when he caught a glimpse of the whip in his hand.
"I'm going to ask you a few questions, don't be afraid. But if you don't answer truthfully, don't blame me for having no eyes on my whip!" the captain threatened.
"Yes..." The dwarf was so frightened that his hair was trembling and he stood there, not daring to move.
"Do you mine these mines yourself?"
"yes."
"Did you finish digging in one morning?"
"yes."
"Do you believe this yourself? Huh? On the entire Cinnabar Star, there are only a few people who can complete the task in the morning. You mean that you sickly guys can complete the task ahead of time? Don't you think it's funny?" The captain exploded.
The dwarf was so frightened by the captain's shouting that he squatted down and held his head, trembling for fear of being beaten.
"That's enough! Get out!" The captain clenched the whip. No matter how angry he was, he would not break his own rules and beat someone who had completed the task.
He wanted to see who was against him and how dared to secretly help these untouchables!

In the afternoon, when the miners saw Su Yanxi again, their eyes were filled with passion.
They completed the check-in in the morning and received their allocated food. Now they are full and energetic, and are looking forward to going to the mysterious space to mine.
Before entering the space, the miners all knelt down in front of Su Yanxi and said solemnly, "Brother Nian! From now on, we will all follow you!"
"As long as it's something we can do, just tell us what to do!"
Supervisor Huang who happened to pass by: What’s that noise?
Looking inside, in the dark and cramped cave, a group of people were kneeling and worshiping devoutly in front of the young man who was standing on the bed without a foothold.
Supervisor Huang: ...What a large-scale missionary scene!
Xiao Hai's father had sharp eyes and spotted the supervisor outside the cave at a glance. He quickly went up to talk to him and made him promise not to reveal the matter.
Finally, Supervisor Huang warned, "If you say so, I can't keep your secret for long. You're making such a big fuss, sooner or later everyone will know. Well, be prepared!"
…
Su Yanxi was not frightened by the scene of the miners worshiping her. Instead, she enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.
She was born to be the prince's wife and would be loyal to the people of the entire empire in the future. She would not be flattered by the fact that they were just some miners.
"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, let's start mining!" She didn't want to get close to the common people and be tainted with the smell of inferiority.
…
Entering the mine, the first black crystal mine has been mined, and the miners continue to mine the second mine. The light mining sound can be heard in every corner of the system.
After a while, an exclamation attracted everyone's attention.
"Oh my god! I was digging in the mines, and a pair of shoes fell out along with the black crystal ore!"
“?!” The miners were confused.
A moment later, the other half of the crowd made the same cry.
"Oh my god! Oh my god! It's real! A candy fell out from here!"
In just two hours, more and more people received random drops, including shoes, candies, clothes, accessories, and some food that could be used as staple food.
What Miaomiao envied most was the person who got the candy.
What does candy taste like? Her little head was thinking, her eyes fixed on her mother's hand as she dug, hoping that a candy would fall from there.
Unfortunately, after a long time, she had heard no less than ten people say that they had won candy, but her mother had won nothing.
She couldn't help but ask, "Mom, why can we get so many things from mining? We had nothing before."
"Because this is where the gods live, those things were given by Brother Nian Nian at the request of the gods!" Miaomiao's mother explained.
"Then what is the basis for the gods to bestow gifts? Why haven't we received any?" Miaomiao frowned, with a big question mark in her little head.
This question stumped Miaomiao's mother. Looking at her child's serious face, she was unwilling to deceive her or tell her the truth, so she could only say:
"Maybe those people need those things more than we do."
But she knew that perhaps the real reason was that she had never been lucky in her life.
She is a jinx who brought death to her parents, her husband, and almost killed her daughter. She is an absolute jinx!
Miaomiao waited patiently for a while. When she thought the gods had given out gifts to those who needed them more than they did, she couldn't wait any longer and asked her mother, "Mom, maybe the gods think you're too powerful, so they only give things to those who need them the most. But Miaomiao really wants a candy."
The daughter looked at her eagerly. Miaomiao's mother knew what her daughter was thinking. If her daughter didn't particularly want something, she wouldn't make a request. She has always been very sensible and never causes trouble for herself.
Unfortunately, she couldn't meet such a small request.
"Miaomiao, it's Mom's fault..."
"No! Mom is so kind! Can Miaomiao try it? Miaomiao is younger than mom. The gods will definitely sense that Miaomiao really needs something!" Miaomiao said naively.
Miaomiao’s mother almost cried. Her daughter is always so sensible.
"Okay, give it a try."
When entering the mysterious space, the daughter did not have a backpack panel, and Miaomiao's mother was not sure whether her daughter could mine.
She thought that if neither she nor her daughter could get any candy, she could go out and exchange one with someone else so that her daughter could have a taste.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Miaomiao's short hands were waving and her hand was five times bigger than the pickaxe to dig the ore.
"Bang...Ding..."
Two pieces of ore fell, one of which was automatically picked up by the system, and the other fell in the corner of the wall, shining brightly.
Miaomiao held the ore in her chubby little hands and smiled so hard that her teeth were visible.
"Look, Mom! We have something good!"
